The Mastery of Self: A Toltec Guide to Personal Freedom Hardcover – May 23, 2016

4.8 4.8 out of 5 stars 6,374 ratings

The ancient Toltecs believed that life as we perceive it is a dream.

We each live in our own personal dream, and all of our dreams come together to make the Dream of the Planet. Problems arise when we forget that the dream is just a dream and fall victim to believing that we have no control over it.

The Mastery of Self takes the Toltec philosophy of the Dream of the Planet and the personal dream and explains how a person can:

  • Wake up
  • Liberate themselves from illusory beliefs and stories
  • Live with authenticity

Once released, we can live as our true, authentic, loving self, not only in solitude and meditation, but in any place--at the grocery store, stuck in traffic, etc.--and in any situation or scenario that confronts us.

The Ruiz family has an enormous following, and this new book from don Miguel, Jr. will be greeted with enthusiasm by fans around the world. This new book from don Miguel, Jr. will be greeted with enthusiasm by fans around the world.

The Mastery of Self: A Toltec Guide to Personal Freedom

In The Mastery of Self, bestselling author and teacher don Miguel Ruiz Jr. takes the Toltec philosophy of the Dream of the Planet and offers you a road map to reclaiming your Authentic Self. He reveals how the tools of awareness, understanding, and unconditional love can free you from any inhibiting beliefs, stories, or ideas that are keeping you from living the best life possible.

This book can help you discover who you really are at the deepest level, which often lies just beyond any conditioning or domestication you have acquired throughout your life.

The Five Levels of Attachment: Toltec Wisdom for the Modern World

In this groundbreaking work, don Miguel Ruiz Jr. writes that we have all unwittingly made agreements about how we choose to live our lives and what we believe our personal truths are.

But what we may not realize is that each one of these agreements represents an attachment, a limiting filter on who we think we are, and what the future could hold.

Armed with the awareness of which beliefs and ideas you are most attached to, you can better navigate the recurring situations in your life that cause you suffering and release any unhealthy beliefs that are no longer serving you.

The Mastery of Life: A Toltec Guide to Personal Freedom

Outside Mexico City lies the ancient pyramid complex of Teotihuacan, which, according to the oral tradition of the Ruiz family, is the spiritual center for the Toltec people. For over twenty years, don Miguel Ruiz Jr. has been traveling to Teotihuacan to teach others about the powerful mysteries found there. In The Mastery of Life, Ruiz explains how the sacred pyramids and plazas of Teotihuacan act as symbolic stops on the transformative path of Toltec Warriors—those who apply the teachings of the Toltecs in their own lives to win the inner war against the forces of domestication, fear, and self-judgment. At the same time, he guides you on your own inner journey, helping you to experience firsthand the transformative power of the Toltec teachings without ever leaving the comfort of your own home. Each chapter contains practical exercises and reflections designed to help you find peace and personal freedom in your own life, right now.

Full content visible, double tap to read brief content.

At the age of 14, don Miguel Jr. apprenticed to his father don Miguel Ruiz. and his grandmother, Madre Sarita. From that early age, he was called upon to translate Madre Sarita's prayers, lectures and workshops from Spanish into English. In this way, through constant repetition and review, he learned the content of her teachings in both languages.

Through interpreting for Madre Sarita, don Miguel Jr. came to understand the power of faith. He saw first-hand how she manifested her intent to heal people, both physically and spiritually.

don Miguel Jr.'s apprenticeship lasted 10 years. When he reached his mid-20's, his father intensified his training. At the apex of this power journey don Miguel said to his eldest son, "Find your way out. Go home and master Death by becoming alive."

For the past twelve years, don Miguel Jr. has applied the lessons learned from his father and grandmother to define and enjoy his own personal freedom while achieving peace with all of creation.

Today, don Miguel Jr. is married and has two young children. And so, as a Nagual he begins once again to pass along the wisdom and the tools of his family's traditions in helping others to achieve their own personal freedom and optimal physical and spiritual health.

The Mastery of Self is the second book that I have read and is truly remarkable. Reading the philosophy of Toltecs has helped me to repair a much tattered time in my life from abuse and negative influences in my life. I think that everyone could benefit from understanding man's domestication and attachments in life. The book helped me realize the importance of unlearning those influences that have damaged me and realizing who we are and what I am. The book is yet again very simple to read yet the words have so much positive meaning. I suggest the book and other books by Don Miguel Ruiz to anyone that needs a new perception in their life and feels trapped.

In a chaotic world seemingly hell-bent on making us all struggle and suffer, Miguel Ruiz reminds us that we are the dream and the dreamers, both. We have, thusly, the power to be mindful and direct the direction of the world. Read this to learn how your mastery of self can help both you and the world at large.

I love my book. I’ll read a bit then contemplate the wisdom in what I have learned. Then read some more. These teachings resonate with what I’ve learned from years of practicing various modalities but I do like how succinctly the knowledge is given.

Reviewed in Germany on December 13, 2023
This book is not just to read, but also contains many exercises. All in all, it helped me differentiating between one‘s behavior, which ist mostly a result of domestication, and the Authentic Self, who is generally hidden behind due to the fog. It also lightens one’s burden of past mistakes (of self and others) and view the world with a more positive view.
